[nieuwy-89]

All I wanted was a nice stress-free game….

[BoLevi]

I think you gotta let markstrom play through it

[FlameFan21]

Sutter needs to wake them the f*** up.

It’s gotta be Vladar for the third. Worst goalie performance I’ve ever seen.

Of course it's Hanifin too. He's at the center of every meltdown and brain dead soft play at the worst time

They aren't giving up much...need some saves

Broken stick and bad bounce off the shin pads didn't help

Not at all. The team looks good, great actually. We aren’t wrong about Markstrom. It’s in his shoulders now, it’s time to earn his paycheque.

[TBone290]

The panel gonna salivate all over the greasers, probably

Markstrom played aggressive against Dallas and great positioning. He has been way too deep in his net so far and seems to be slow with the glove. Perhaps fatigue or he just has a mental block he needs to get over about Edmonton but his Numbers against them this year haven’t been good

[Mass_nerder]

A few lucky bounces for the Oilers, but also, why is Markstrom so deep in his net. What is going on???

[DJones]

I was not prepared for this

[direwolf]

6-5 now? WTF is going on? This game should have been a blowout.

You have to admit that was just embarrassing goaltending and the team absolutely abandoned the structure

The second half of that period they really got away from the checking game. They were still on offence most of the time so not that many scoring chances. But the ones they got were loose D.

I’m not sure what I was expecting from the first Flames vs Oilers playoff game in 31 years. But it sure as #### wasn’t this.

Guaranteed

[bubbsy]

Ugh here comes the creamfest

[81MC]

On the plus side, if there a game to rock a .15 save %, it’s this one? I’ve never blamed anything on our goalie, but Marky has been bad all season against the oil. That needs to stop.

You never watched Elliott play? Lucky you
